31) Dutch Birth Talks: Cesarean Edition with Dr Deurloo

Celebrating Cesarean Awareness Month we delve into the world of cesarean births with an experienced obstetrician-gynecologist (OBGYN) Dr Deurloo - working in Dialonessenhuis in Utrecht- the oldest hospital in the Netherlands. We uncover the unique approach to cesarean sections (C-sections) in this country, where maternal choice and involvement are central to the birthing experience.

Dr Deurloo sheds light on C-section births in the Netherlands and discusses the processes involved in choices, in the operation theatre and the after care. He delves into how his mother-assisted cesareans came about, how mothers play an active role in the birth process, and how this approach empowers women and promotes a sense of agency in childbirth.
